If you love crispy, melt-in-your-mouth pork belly, then these Air Fryer Pork Belly Bites are going to be your new favorite recipe! They’re quick, easy, and packed with flavor, making them a perfect snack, appetizer, or main dish. The air fryer ensures they turn out golden and crispy on the outside while staying tender and juicy on the inside.

Ingredients
- 1 lb pork belly, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika (smoked or regular)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon chili powder (optional, for a kick)
- 1 teaspoon honey or brown sugar (for caramelization)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce (for extra umami)

Instructions
1. Prepare the Pork Belly
- Pat the pork belly cubes dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture (this helps them crisp up).
- Place them in a bowl and toss with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, onion powder, chili powder, honey, and soy sauce.
2. Air Fry the Pork Belly
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
- Arrange the pork belly bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between them.
- Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.
3. Serve and Enjoy
- Remove from the air fryer and let them rest for a minute.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce—honey garlic, BBQ, or spicy mayo are great options!
